A construction worker from Staten Island who bought a lottery ticket shortly before the ticket sales deadline won the $30-million New York state Lotto jackpot, the second largest single prize in North American history. The winning combination of 12-14-22-32-34-43 means Patrick Consalvo, 59, will receive $1.42 million a year, before taxes, for 21 years, with the first check arriving two weeks after the prize is claimed.
